Vimshottari Dasha Narrative



Bill Clinton USA Pres-42 - Barbara Pijan Lama Jyotisha


Possible Problems with the Birth Time

  • 08h51 BT for 19-Aug-1946 in Hope, Arkansas USA = widely used by USA astrologers. When Clinton was first elected USA president, an unconfirmed 03h44 BT was circulated and reading based on that BT were developed. Each BT has some merits although it seem like the 08h51 BT provides a better match to publicly known events.

  • Of course it would be handy to claim a Thula lagna which would generate Throne Yoga for his Shani-Karkata + Budha in 10, and the Sun would move into 11 for community activism to reflect Mr. Clinton's expensive post-presidential fundraising and global health outreach. However in general when a purported birth certificate time is published it is more rational to work from the hospital time unless that time can be replaced with another certified time. Such are the frustrations of Mr. Clinton's family background that an accurate time may never be known. We do know that his mother's behavior was a bit occluded, his father was persona non grata, and that he has enjoyed a lifetime of clandestine affairs, so perhaps the lagna is right where it should be.

Considerations in evaluating the proposed Birth Times:

  • Bill Clinton is a career politician who has never held any job outside of elected politics. In retirement, he serves as the celebrity director of a large international NGO, husband of the working USA secretary of state, advocate for the world's most disadvantaged groups, and brilliant negotiator of hostages. Mr. Clinton is almost always on center stage. It seems more reasonable therefore that the lord of 10th navamsha would be a politically oriented, kingly, attention-and-celebrity graha such as the swakshetra Surya.

  • 03h44 BT = yields a fairly sober nativity with Shani in patriotic Karkata lagna.

    • That setup is similar to a number of national leaders such as George W. Bush - 43 and Indira Gandhi.

    • If Karkata = lagna, L-7 would enter lagna, indicating longevity in marriage through a deep personality identification with the married status.

    • In addition the 03h44 time would yield a Vimshottari Dasha which places the timing of marriage in Rahu+Rahu, and election to USA presidency in Guru+Guru.

  • 08h51 BT = 10th navamsha lord Shani = radix L-5+L-6. Perhaps this is adequate justification for a lifetime career in public service via winning (5) the political (5) prize of elected office.

  • 08h51 BT = Kanya lagna applies, and Kuja becomes the highly inauspicious L-3+L-8 in lagna with the neechcha Shukra. Such an unfortunate graha seems unlikely for a world leader... but in truth Mr. Clinton endured a major sex scandal while on public display as a world figure, and Kuja = karaka of male sexual pursuit.

  • 03h44 BT = L-3+L-12 Budha in Karkata lagna with Shani, identical to the lagna of GW Bush-43 (but lacking Bush's rising Shukra which gave the younger Bush a certain boyish charm); perhaps the L-12 as a significator of animosity from extra-marital relationships is adequate indication of his proclivity toward sexual scandal along with his ability to emerge unscatheddue to his intensive work ethic.

  • (Americans decry immoral sexuality but they profoundly admire a solid work ethic!)

Marriage situation

  • 08h41 BT = a severe Kuja dosha upon yuvati bhava that would appear to make marriage unsustainable or at least extremely difficult. Despite Mr. Clinton's infamous marital indiscretions, he has remained legally married to Hillary Clinton since 1975. Neither he nor Mrs. Clinton have ever announced a separation. Guru in bhava-2 for the 08h51 BT would suggest the availability of a second spouse.

  • 03h44 BT = bhava-2 Simha containing the brilliant, regal, political, and dignified Surya-Simha. Ravi = uchcha in navamsha. According to the 03h44 BT, if Mr. Clinton were to remarry, it would never be in a state of disgrace (such as after divorce) but rather only in a dignified widowhood.

Chandra

  • 03h44 BT = Chandra out of 8 and into 10; out of Krittika and into Bharani _Chandra.htm">Bharani . Soma = 10+Bharani seems right, given that Mr. Clinton became world famous (typical of Chandra+10) and also considering Mr. Clinton's famed late-night work habits (Bharani + Shani+1).

  • Also, Shukra lord of Bharani is notoriously fallen on Mr. Clinton's day of birth; and this might account for his emotional outreach to "fallen women", his own mother's rather chequered past, and a general emotional need for the company of younger women of lower status, as a lifelong psychological pattern.

Vimshottari Dasha

  • The intimate psychology of a nativity is infinitely debatable. What is judged to be culturally inappropriate or self-destructive is rather subjective, in the eye of the beholder. However the Vimshottari Dasha is where the "rubber meets the road" in Jyotisha. Factual events occurring in the lifetime should match correctly with the timelords and the houses they control, or else there is something wrong with the birth data.

Marriage timing

  • 08h41 BT = marriage timing for Mr. Clinton = highly problematic Rahu+Shani.

  • 03h41 BT = marriage timing = Rahu+Rahu. Rahu is an excellent Jyotisha indicator of marriage, especially for marriage to one long desired. (The story is that he pursued Hillary quite diligently.) Also, beginning of a new mahadasha typically signifies a new life phase.

Election Timing

  • 08h41 BT = The presidential election timing for Mr. Clinton =highly problematic Guru+Budha

  • 03h41 BT = Guru+Guru for 03h41 BT is an r = a reasonable indicator of a dramatic new life phase.

Timing of Mrs. Clinton named USA Sec-State

  • After an exhausting run in the presidential primary followed by a grudging defeat, Hillary Clinton was named USA Sec-State by her previous opponent the new 2008 president Barack Obama. It was a very difficult year in her life and no doubt in her husband's, but the result (typical of Shani) was high dignity for Mrs. Clinton and a return to public advising and negotiating role for her husband (albeit behind the scenes).

  • 03h41 BT = L-7 Shani+Shani with Shani in radix lagna would seem like a highly appropriate Vimshottari period to mark these events.

  • 08h41 BT = a less satisfying Shani+Budha. Also, beginning of a new mahadasha signifies a new life phase.


Kanya lagna Political Leaders: Budha = lagnesha and L-10

Krittika Chandra

Ketu in bhava-3  = Rahu in bhava-9

  • Ambivalence (Ketu) toward publications, news-announcements, and siblings

  • Desire for recognition (Rahu) as a father, professor or a spiritual teacher

uchcha Surya for political campaigns in navamsha lagna, along with the governing Makara in 10th navamsha

the exalted Surya in navamsha lagna = intensely strategic like a military general, as of course as the top commander one does not take orders easily. This is the daily M.O. in work: independent judgment, project or campaign orientation, exceptionally goal oriented. Independent, independent, independent. In contests and competitions, works to win. Not a cog in the wheel. Needs recognition and reward; needs praise; needs adulation from rank-and-file in the environment (from vulnerable and star-struck White House interns); needs the organization to have faith in your leadership not of the entire organization but of the project.

Surya-Mesha in lagna = career elected politician could never due to election laws keep a project for more than 8 years and realistically half of that is spent campaigning. It is a very military-campaign-oriented, project-oriented, tactical more than career-strategic placement and normally very successful in achieving its desired WIN due to radiant charisma. Add the super-dynamic Mangala and there is a winner who starts young in political elections (he was the youngest state governor) and wins almost every contest along the way.

The other factor is Capricorn = 10th navamsha, which shows the dominant social behavioral environment in which the independent, strategic, military-general type of personality should be operating. Makara (Capricorn) is fixed, traditional, tightly structured and ranked hierarchical, conservative, duty-oriented, low-ego high responsibility, orderly, lawful, long-lasting, grey, stone-and-wood, seeks respect and longevity and loyalty to the institution not the individual.

Rising Degree of the Navamsha Lagna = 22 Mesha (Aries).

According to M.C. Jain in The Stars and your Future, (p 12) 22 Mesha =the "Degree of Faith":

  • "Denotes a devout person who will be subjected to many trials and tauntsin life,

    • but who will, by the strength of his faith, overcomethem all.

  • He comes from the masses rather than the classes,

    • and his sympathy will ever be with the struggling people of the nations.

  • From officialdom and materialism he receives scant courtesy."


Shukra in Hasta Lagna, from ~~ Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 141.

  • "Romantic nature, a good speaker and a comedian.

  • Is generous and helpful to the poor;

  • is very lovable."


Mangala in Hasta Lagna, from ~~ Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 148.

  • "Artistic; modest; a serious writer; is somewhat sarcastic; adept at satire;

  • gentle on the surface but shrewd and searching beneath.

  • Very versatile, a jack-of-all trades but master of none;

  • usually among the reformers working for the public welfareand the betterment of the community against those in authority."


Prominent Graha in the Nativity

Shadbala: Surya and Kuja

  • Kuja is the dominant graha in terms of owning lagnas and inhabited rashis in the combined D-1+D-9 nativity.

  • But Surya is strong by classical shad bala:

Charismatic Surya =

  • Swakshetra in radix

  • Uchcha in navamsha lagna + swakshetra kuja! (He really needs to win!)

Clinton has a tremendous amount of

  • vital male energy (Kuja)

  • abundant mental capability (Budha)

  • charismatic political charm (Surya, natural regulator of putra sthana for gambling+creativity+politics).

Karakamsha = bhava-4 Dhanusha

  • Bill Clinton was known as "The Education President".

  • His administration was distinguished by sharply higher rates of home-ownership in the U.S. adult population.


Brief overview of Bill Clinton's most prominent radix graha

Kuja

  • L-3+L-8 from Kanya Lagna

  • L-1+L-8 from Mesha Chandra

Mark of a Winner:

  • Bill Clinton's life is dominated by energetic and highly malefic L-3+L-8 Kuja.

Sex

  • Clinton has the a classic Kanya-lagna male issues with secret (8) sexual pursuits (Kuja) which are ultimately announced (3) to the public. The stronger Kuja's position, the more Kanya's secret sexual dalliances are problematic for the native. In Clinton's case, Kuja occupies lagna with the neechcha Shukra. It is a foregone conclusion that his troubles will involve insecure women and ultimately the scandal(s) will go very public.

With Kuja rising in radix, navamsha, and dashamsha, Clinton is clearly focused on *winning* whatever competition he chooses to enter. Self-defensive and prone to the typical biting sarcasmof Kuja-Kanya.

Kuja dosha on the marriage house characterized by hyper-competitive and critical (and usually hypocritical) Mars.

Kuja receives difficult drishti from both L-5+L-6 Shani (discipline) and amplifier Rahu (entitlement).

Budha:

  • L-1+L-10 from Kanya Lagna

  • L-3+L-6 from Mesha Chandra

Verbal, rationalizing Budha is strong for the personality in general in radix and navamsha.

Budha is extremely strong for career as radix L-1 and L-10 dashamsha. Major career successes should occur in periods of Budha.

  • Budha = a double malefic from Chandra.

  • Generally, periods of public successwill simultaneously be felt as periods of private mental stress (3) and marriage conflict (6).

Shukra:

  • L-2+L-9 from Kanya Lagna

  • L-2+L-7 from Mesha Chandra

Neechcha L-2+L-5 Shukra in lagnagives romance troubleand mouth trouble. Relations with bitter, unhappy women and junk food. Also one has a lifelong compassionate affinity for the underclass (neechcha Shukra).

  • One benefit of radix L-7 in lagna is marriage longevity due to the native feeling deeply socially identified (1) with the character of the spouse. Bill Clinton has always been a major public supporter of his wife Hillary Clinton. This behavior is quite authentic according to Jyotisha rules that L-7 in lagna gives a strong identity with the marriage partner.

The marriage partner (L-7) is strongly identified with the native's social personality (1), and the partner's loyalty to the partnership runs deep.

Chandra:

  • L-11 from Kanya Lagna

Troublesome rash-acting, critical competitive Krittika Moon in randhra bhava is prone to sharp criticism of others; and impulsive, self-serving (Mesha) secret liaisons.

  • Krittika = criticism= 'the cutter'.

The Kanya native is gainful during periods of L-11 Chandra, and one generally feels a strong emotional orientation toward setting and achievinga series of lifetime goals.

  • Chandra at 27 Mesha occupies the 9th navamsha of Mesha = a Pushkara navamsha. Despite the unfavorable location in 8th-from-lagna, it is generally true that the active lords of Vimshottari dasha periods when transiting across this navamsha will bring fortunate events. The auspice is improved even more because Chandra inhabits the navamsha (Mesha's 9th navamsha = Dhanusha; and this zone is the same space as Krittika pada 1.

Shani:

  • L-5+L-6 from Kanya Lagna

  • L-10+L-11 from Mesha Chandra

Shani oppressing lagnesha Budhagives careful legal argumentationbut also difficulty locating the sense of authentic truthfulness.

"Slick Willy" is usually able to compensate for his energetic excess by clever marketing spins and the moral offset of consistent, demanding work in the public interest (Shani). But his own words (Budha) are generally not trusted.

  • Shani casts His disciplining, work-ethic drishti upon the radix lagna, upon Shukra, upon Kuja, and upon Chandra. In this nativity with its Mangala-based liabilities, Shani's oppression of Mangala is likely a good thing.

  • Shani periods are very much mixed; gains and losses both;

Shani Mahadashabegins in 2003 - favorable, because Shani gives much better results in all undertakings when the native has reached social and emotional maturity.

  • Nevertheless, look out for male shenanigans during Shani+Kuja period.


Attitude toward Marriage

  • Mesha = navamsha lagna = marriage is primarily physical experience. Compare to Mahatma Gandhi.

  • The D-9 lagna shows an extremely vital and vigorous agent of "sexual pursuit" due to uchcha Surya and swakshetra Kuja in Mesha lagna. This man has a tremendous amount of instinctive animal power, combined with a rather primitive and selfish understanding of the marriage bond.

  • The native's behavior in marriage = the highly inauspicious L-3+L-8 Kuja+Kanya+1. The native is aggressively argumentative in marriage. Kuja is mixed up with the neechcha L-2+L-9 Shukra which represents both wealth and "fallen women".

  • The native will be a philanderer and addicted to weak women who flatter his ego.

  • He will marry a warrior-woman who brings him wealth and fame (Shukra + Kuja). Navamsha is extremely strong.


Marriage:

  • Wedding date = 11 Oct 1975.

  • Rahu+Shani+Shukra period. Rahu in Vrishabha (uchcha) gives the result of Shukra, and Shukra = L-7 navamsha.

  • The marriage of William Clinton and Hillary Rodham Clinton has been widely analyzed in the press.

  • If the 08h51m birth time for Bill Clinton is accepted, a few important observations can be made from the husband's perspective, on a marital reputation that has survived significant public trauma.

  • The Clinton-Rodham union has become iconic for many married adult members of the USA professional classes.

    • It has come to serve as a teaching example for legions of USA professional spouses who juggle two prominent careers, a home with children, ongoing intellectual development which requires reading and thinking time, and often extremely heavy public responsibilities including extensive travel.

    • How to meet all of these personal and family needs while somehow remaining spiritually and emotionally aligned in life partnership?

    • The Clinton marriage provides one example of dual-career marital longevity achieved via professional respect and support, along with tolerance for personal imperfections, growth and change. (Not to mention a few catastrophically selfish mistakes.)

Hillary's radix Thula lagna = Bill's 7th navamsha; Hillary's radix Kumbha Moon in Bill's 11th navamsha for Friendship

  • Hillary R. Clinton's Jyotisha charts are constructed from a 08h02 birth time.

  • The bond of partnership is heartfelt.

  • Hillary's navamsha Moon (Vrischika) also matches Bill's radix Rahu-Ketu; one of the signs of an enduring human relationship. Marriage on the last day of Rahu-Ketu transiting the axis of Vrishabha-Vrischika, 11-Oct-1975.

  • Bill's Mesha Chandra occupies Hillary's radix yuvati bhava, opposed to her Shukra; also yuti her navamsha Shukra in Mesha. 7th-from-Shukra shows affection, appreciation, and friendliness in a partnership.

Neechcha Shukra

  • Bill Clinton's radix is not favorable for conventional marriage.

  • He appears to be a complex, difficult and perhaps immature marriage partnerwho attracts a capable, ambitious, serious, and energetic spouse.

Neechcha Shukrain Bill's nativity casts drishti upon the marriage house. Indicates that the spouse has her own self-esteem issues related to deficiency of feminine confidence, due to excess mentalizing analysis. Self-destructive perfectionism in the female, profligacy and analytical comparing of women in the male.

  • Neechcha Shukra = a lifetime of trouble from attractions to fallen women.

    • Generally speaking, Clinton is attracted to troubled women.

    • Shukra + Kuja in Kanya, a poor rashi for both Kuja and

    • Shukra to occupy, suggests that one's spouse is not inclined to be romantic, but rather is focused on competitive [Mangala] verbal argumentation [Kanya], as a primary means of affirming the marital bond.


Kuja-Kanya in lagna - caveat, 08h51 BT

It is not an overstatement to say that almost all of Bill Clinton's troubles are due to Kuja.

  • as the "double-L-8", Kuja is not only problematic but also He is widespread: Kuja rises in D-1, D-9, and D-10

  • Kuja is very uncomfortable in the rashi of His enemy Budha. Mangala-Kanya is prone to sarcasm, criticism overt and covert, and general self-defensive passive-aggressive complaining and blaming behaviors.

  • Due to Shukra + Kuja with a putative drishti upon house-7, the first wife will display qualities of competitiveness, critical analysis, sporting athleticism, and a broadly pleasant diplomatic fluency of speech due to Guru.

  • When Kuja rises, both spouses share a drive toward vigorous competition.

  • In Kanya, most of this competition is verbal, in the form of argumentation which renders a very successful position for high-achieving lawyers, politicians, deal-makers, and negotiators.

  • Inauspicious for marriage: Kuja Dosha is formed from the highly inauspicious rising L-3+L-8 Mars. As always for Chandra-Mesha, Kuja is both lord of Chandra, and lord of 8th-from-Chandra. Note if BT is changed to the alternative 03h44, the Kuja dosha affects only houses 6, 9 and 10 -- generally a positive effect except for the dosha upon 9 giving some conflict with the father. (Conflict with the father is a fact of Mr. Clinton's biography.)

Guru:

  • L-7 Guru occupies 8th-from-swakshetra

  • Kuja's drishti from lagna upon house-7 while Kuja also rules Chandra in a dusthamsha (with Chandra also in "critical Krittika"!) = constant critical interpersonal arguing between the spouses, despite their prosperous public lifestyle agreement facilitated by L-7 gracious, diplomatic VargottamshaGuru.

  • Navamsha Guru gives the results of His lord Shukra, which is favorable in a general social way for peer relationships with women, and makes the native attractive to others in both public and private life.

Chandra

  • Krittika Chandra in house-8 receiving drishti of Lord Mangala is super-competitive, highly sexualized, and mentally criticizing; prone toward secret liaisons.

Power Marriage Success = Navamsha

  • Heroic, military genius planets rise in D-9. Uchcha Surya and swakshetra Kuja propel Clinton's extraordinary success through virtually all obstacles.

  • Every period of his super-strong Mars will evoke the strength embedded in this power marriage. The wife provides essential balancing and designing skills, building a web of tightly supportive relationships around their charismatic union.

  • Drishti within navamsha from auspicious, diplomatic VargottamshaGuru+Thulashows the "power marriage" to be a lasting, influential, and ultimately admirable entity.


IMO, this marriage is driven by the thrill of competitive rational achievement.

  • Both spouses want toWinwith the best argument.

  • Due to Guru's generous influence on this marriage, each individual's success is seen as a win for the partnership.

  • However, if partners were to exit the competitive arena, there would be no other outlet for their incredibly competitive and extremely sharp argumentative energy. A bitter divorce would almost instantly ensue.

Therefore the prescription for this marriage is forboth spouses to stay extremely busywith matters of super-high prestige achievement for as long as humanly possible.

  • If they retire from public life, they will have to live separately.


Clinton's Kuja is a useful teaching example about the defining role of Navamsha planets.

  • Often a very promising radix graha is ruined in navamsha, or a frightening radix planet gives ultimate success due to improvement in D-9.

  • Clinton's radix Kuja is definitely inauspicious, despite being obviously very competitive to the point of aggression, no doubt highly sexual in an adolescent athletic style, and sharp mentally too as Kuja carries forward the mental energy of His lord Budha.

As L-3+L-8 + lord of 8th-from-Chandra, Kuja is a troublemaker.

  • If the radix were the sole indicator of Clinton's Mars, this native could hardly achieve the governorship of Arkansas or a two-term the Presidency of USA. We would more likely expect a womanizing bar-fighter, always boasting and in trouble with the law, highly unfaithful and bitterly critical of others.

One of the keys to Clinton's success is in fact hisremarkably empowered swakshetra Kuja in navamsha, which = "turned on" during every period of Mars.

Yuti thecharismatic and heroic uchcha Surya, Clinton's D-9 swakshetra lagnesha Kuja is a mark of tremendous celebrity and public success.

Rahu Mahadasha

  • age 23-41

  • located in dharma bhava, 2nd-from-Chandra

  • Rahu gives effects of neechcha Shukra, who is L-2+L-9 from Kanya lagna

  • Rahu gives effects of neechcha Shukra, who is L-2+L-7 from Mesha Chandra

  • period of the "double L-2" = focus on wealth and acquisition of knowledge.

  • L-2 Shukra also uses Rahu to amplify the conditions of family history, values of the upbringing.

Rahu+ Rahu = Bill meets and partners with fellow Yale Law School student Hillary Rodham

Rahu+Guru:

Culminating degree, in period of L-4+L-7

  • 1973 Yale J.D. +pass Bar

Rahu+Shani:

setback, typical of early part of period of L-5+L-6Shani

  • 1974 defeated in bid for Arkansas's Congressional 3rd District

Rahu+Shani:

Marriage.

Unless Shani = navamsha L-1 or navamsha L-7 (Shani is neither L-1 nor L-7 in Clinton's navamsha, see above) marriage in a Shani period connotes material ambition, social responsibility, or a larger sense of customary duty.Not a romantic motive.

Rahu+Shani:

success, typical of later part of period of L-5+L-6Shani which always takes TIME to bear fruit. Rahu+Shani period also gives beneficial career effect of Shani's D-9 lord, Budha

  • 1976 wins Attorney General position, Arkansas

Rahu+Budha:

Budha is the highly auspicious L-1+L-10 and lord of dashamsha, plus competitive boost from Budha's navamsha lord Kuja

  • 1978 wins election to post of Governor of Arkansas (2-year term)


Rahu+Ketu:

Ketu gives malefic effects of mental confusion and negative effects of L-3+L-8 Mars; there is scheming against him by a powerful priesthood (of wealthy corporate owners)

  • 1980 defeated in re-election for Governor of Arkansas


Rahu+Shukra:

benefits of L-2+L-9 plus Shukra gives excellent career effects of Shukra's navamsha lord Budha. Rahu casts drishti upon Shukra from dharma bhava, which increases the auspicious effects of Shukra for career activities:

  • 1982 wins re-election for Governor of Arkansas, remained until 1992

  • total service = 12 years


Guru Mahadasha

  • age 42-58

  • Guru in dhana bhava, 7th-from-Chandra

  • L-4+L-7 from Kanya lagna

  • L-5+L-12 from Mesha Chandra

  • Guru rules a trine from Chandra, but otherwise L-4+L-7 Guru suffers from kendra adhipati dosha and is not especially fortunate for the Kayna lagna

  • Guru = L-4 and lord of Karakamsha-4 =patriotic national focus

Guru + lagnesha + L-10 Budha:

Excellent results of mahadasha pati L-4+L-7 (which gives a well-spoken and supportive wife) for career, combined with L-10+L-1 in 4+10 angle from Guru.

As always periods of Budha evoke the competitive energy of Clinton's dominant radix Mangala, which infuses Budha periods with his intense need to Win.

  • Budha in 11 = economies

  • Budha occupies a kendra from Guru and a kendra from Clinton's krittika Moon

  • 1992 wins USA presidential election for the Democratic party, defeating the incumbent George H.W. Bush-41.

  • Will hold the presidency for the full eight year maximum, suffering considerable scandal but also presiding over one of the most prosperous economies in US history.


Guru+Shukra:

Shukra gives superb career results (see Rahu+Shukra) and under mahadasha pati Guru these results are sustained by Shukra's lord Guru. Much of Guru period is due to strategic relationships esp. the wife and core partners.

  • 1996 wins reelection to the USA presidency, total 8 years as President

  • widely recognized to have facilitated the best US national economy of the 20th century

  • neechcha Shukra does create an inappropriate sexual relationship (as it did during Shukra's earlier bhukti under Rahu)

Guru+Surya-Chandra = Trouble

  • Surya occupies house-12 and Chandra occupies house-8. This dushthamsha setup is bound to create troubles related to secret sexual liaisons, hidden knowledge, and corruption -- affecting both the native and his opponents.

  • Guru-Surya period, in 1998 the famous sex scandal nearly destroyed his presidency. However he survived and flourished, due partly to support from international leaders who thought the whole thing was silly. Clinton's Surya does occupy vyaya bhava from his Kanya lagna. However Surya is also in Simha swakshetra. All told, he faced a crisis of personality integrity (12) but weathered it reasonably well due to the balance of factors.

  • However, Surya is dignified in radix, navamsha and dashamsha.

    • Chandra in radix Krittika is relentlessly defensive and critical of the motives of others.

    • Chandra evokes mahadasha pati Guru's protective power from navamsha,

    • and Chandra evokes Shani's capacity for justice and censure, from dashamsha.

  • Although Clinton was punished for lying (certainly his moral weak spot given the condition of Mars and house-3 mental gymnastics = communications),

  • Guru's strength prevents scandal and the resulting technical impeachment from damaging the long-term prestige of his career.


Shani Mahadasha

  • age 58-77

  • Shani = labha bhava, 4th-from-Chandra

  • L-5+L-6 from Kanya lagna

  • L-10+L-11 from Mesha Chandra

  • A period of social activism and extraordinary fundraising - Shani in 11 and lord of 11th-from-Chandra

Shani+Shani

Shani+Kuja:
